Could you check the "Input Device", and select the right microphone? It should be fixing it.

You tried the loop to hear yourself? Btw, on Discord (if people hear you on it), which one is the microphone used?

Well there goes your problem. Are you using a laptop? A webcam? An external microphone?
mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago
laptop mic 😔 its a 2 stereo mics built into the top
Hagenth
Hagenth•3y ago
Usually, laptops have a "constructor" software that manages sound, seems here that it's an intel software, could you try to type "Intel Microphone" in the Windows Search Bar and see if anything comes up?
mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago
nah theres nothing
mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago
this is what comes up under apps, same with All but removes the web results

What you can do to test the mic more efficiently is:
Hagenth
Hagenth•3y ago
Go to the Sound options of Windows

Then at the bottom, hit this:

Go to the recording tab. Select the microphone you want to test. Right click, properties, listen, and check "Listen to this device", and then bottom right "Apply". And talk to see if you can hear yourself. If you can, that means your mic is working! And don't forget to uncheck the box and apply again afterward. Lmk how that goes.

mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago

Hagenth
Hagenth•3y ago
Alright, so Discord doesn't detect input even from the Realtek one?
mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago
no
Hagenth
Hagenth•3y ago
And you tried to listen to the device, and couldn't hear it?
mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago

Hagenth
Hagenth•3y ago
H'm?
mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago

Hagenth
Hagenth•3y ago
Yes?
mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago

Hagenth
Hagenth•3y ago
It does.
mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago

Hagenth
Hagenth•3y ago
Usually I'd say, yes.
mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago

mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago

Hagenth
Hagenth•3y ago
Ofc!
mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago
so my main headphones, audio technica m50x (iirc) have sound but they dont have a mic installed as far as i know and the mics built into my laptop dont detect any sound at all
Hagenth
Hagenth•3y ago
If they don't have a mic, then use them as headphones in Realtek, could you show me the Realtek interface?
mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago

Ok, alright not what I expected to see! On Discord, could you try to change the input in your audio settings?
No description
Hagenth
Hagenth•3y ago
In voice and video, then hit "let's check", and verify that you can hear yourself!
mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago
it reflects the audio output despite being an input so basically
Hagenth
Hagenth•3y ago
Hmmmm, yeah.
mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago
i had the valorant backing ost repeating about 40 times getting progressively louder and louder like a 2012 meme
Hagenth
Hagenth•3y ago
So that's the problem! 😂 Well, I guess you found what was wrong at least!
mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago
lol it is? yeah not sure how to fix it
Hagenth
Hagenth•3y ago
So, sorry if I'm kinda lost, but you still don't have sound right? Did you try to select the right mic in Discord and test it?
mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago
i have sound as in headphones but no audio input, ie no mic input well ive tried all 3 and they dont work
Hagenth
Hagenth•3y ago
I'm thinking it might be an app permission issue. Go to Settings - Privacy - Microphone. And check if your "Microphone access" is on. And check that in the list, Valorant and Discord are allowed to use it.
mou aresei to souvlaki
mou aresei to souvlakiOP•3y ago
turns out i didnt read the top line

i guess stereo mix is something else oh yes valorant, discord or riot arent in the permission screen but they do come up like this in the history bit
